About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes into an FS Houses office, he stopped mid-step and stared in surprise. The scent of freshly baked cookies filled the air, wafting from inside the empty building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an elderly lady in a flowery dress, busily arranging cookies on a plate. ‘Morning!’ she chirped, noticing him for the first time. 'Just leaving some treats around for good luck.’ Turns out, it was the owner’s grandmother, dropping off her famous batch before closing time.

2. One day, as an FS Houses realtor was showing a house, she noticed something odd on the door: ‘For Sale? Not for Us!’ Curious, she leaned closer and saw that it was simply a piece of tape with marker scribbled over it. The seller had clearly been in a hurry to leave town without removing someone else’s sign. With a smile, the realtor turned back to her client and said, 'Looks like our competition is already here!'

3. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was stocking boxes in the FS Houses warehouse, he stumbled upon an old, dusty hatbox. Curious, he opened it and found inside a perfectly preserved strawberry shortcake with its original wrapper. Smiling, he took a bite—only to discover that the cake tasted exactly like fresh strawberries from his childhood. Word spread quickly around town, and soon everyone knew not to miss the annual ‘Taste of History’ event held every autumn at FS Houses. It turned out the cake had been left there by a long-forgotten neighbor as a joke on moving day.

4. One evening, after closing time, a young boy walked past the FS Houses office and stopped abruptly. Inside, the receptionist had just turned off her computer when she heard a soft whimper. Peering out, she saw a tiny kitten peeking curiously from behind a stack of boxes. The receptionist scooped up the little ball of fur and brought it inside. The next morning, as she was preparing for work, she noticed a small note on her desk: 'Thank you for saving my house!' Turned out, the kitten belonged to a delivery driver who’d been pestered by mice.
